RE: Altering Knit Fabric

I wouldn't have thought you could cut knit fabric, but a friend (who does NOT sew) asked if I could repair her knitted jumper sleeve, which had gone on the seam. It had actually been made from knitted fabric as if it were a woven fabric. It wasn't a fine knit either, it was chunky. So I guess it works. I did have to do a bit of extra weaving into the seam as the it had started to try and unravel a bit, but only because the seam stitching had gone.
Anyway, that's my meagre experience on this.

I did that before - repaired a sweater sleeve where the hem had gone. But I didn't cut any part off. :)
